Nuits Saint-Georges 1er Cru Vieilles Vignes Prieuré Roch 2009
The wine
This very prestigious domaine is managed by the co-proprietor and manager of the mythical Domaine la Romanée-Conti. It is entirely devoted to its terroir, taking the "natural" approach to its very limits. As a result, the wines are very refined and closely reflect their respective climats.
This Nuits-Saint-Georges Vieilles Vignes is a selection of the oldest vines in Clos des Corvées, a 5.2-hectare parcel which was divided up in the Middle Ages and is one of the top monopoles in the region. The nose reveals a bouquet of ripe cherries and the palate has a spicy, cinnamon theme, suggesting the festive season, and well-blended mouthwatering tannins. This superb classic cuvée is simply delicious.
About the Producer Prieuré Roch
Domaine Prieuré Roch, created in 1988, extends over 14 hectares, along the Côte de Nuits, over a dozen climats. The Domaine applies organic methods and favours very low yields. His wines are therefore very fine and represent as closely as possible their respective climats.
